Live updates after Balakot air strike – the world leaders are reacting and standing up against terror

A fresh proposal has been submitted by the US, UK and France at the United Nations Security Council to designate Masood Azhar, chief of Jaish-e-Mohammed, a global terrorist. The proposal getting approved would mean that Masood Azhar will be tagged as a ‘UN-designated global terrorist’ as also he will face global travel ban, arms embargo and asset freeze.

It takes 10 working days for the Security Council Sanctions Committee to consider the proposal. As China has repeatedly blocked the similar proposal in the past by US, UK and France, his reaction is uncertain as of now.
